Reading
I learned to read with the Dick and Jane series. Your child will learn to read books from the Scott-Foresman reading series. Here are some of the ways you can help at home:
*Listen and assist your child when they read their PACK
book to you each day
*Use the retelling hand to help your child build
understanding
*Ask your child to read the book multiple times to build
fluency
*Review reading work sent home/practice reading paper phonics stories sent home weekly
*Make sight word flashcards and practice these words until your child can read them quickly
*Model reading by showing your child how you use reading each day
*Play reading games sent home throughout the year
REMEMBER......READERS ARE LEADERS!
